I have to say, i have a sansa from sandisk... i bought some better ear buds for it...sounds fucking great.

I would guess you get what you pay for, cheap chinese no-brand ones probably don't sound as good...

I like the Zune, but I guess all the major brands all sound good.

Ipod, with a good AKG or Bose headphones

the major differences are in features/software not the sound quality

i got an ipod from someone for christmas, and its cool but i dont like the shitty itunes interface. I would much rather it was drag and drop external hard drive.

With my other mp3 players i can simply add songs wherever i am at whatever computer without installing any software, just plug in the usb and drag and drop

with my ipod i have to use the crappy bloated itunes software, i would think more about that aspect.

I bought one of the new ipod video nanos a week ago and it sounds good. I also don't like the whole itunes deal, but after dealing with ipod for so many years I guess I'm used to it.

With the right headphones, the iPods all sound great.

I have an old 20gb Ipod and I have a 4gb Sansa and the sound is the same. the Sansa is nice but the software isn't working well for me. I've been ripping with Itune and then drop&drag to the Sansa .I still can't get it to load up Vids. I also have a Knock Off Ipod shuffle (2gb) I use it for the gym and its great ..i get them for like $12 ..lol

Depends at what bit rate your mp3 is encoded

VBR is way better than 128 or 96kbps

i have a zune and it fucking kicks ass

especially if you get the multimedia accessory cable

I've owned pretty much all of the Ipod models ever made and I would say the sound quality on the new Touch is the best.
